thanks for the info. So far, so good. I hope the new engine is as good as the old one. It held up for 230,000km. The only real problem I've had with the car has been vaporlocking in hot weather. If I remove and reinstall the gas cap, it starts. It's only done it a few times. Quirks? Gremlins? Time to buy a new gas cap.

Replying to: starwood128 (Feb 24, 2007 7:31 am) sounds like the same problem with my 1998 venture. The fix was changing out a $30.00 part. This part is on the left side and called TDC fire that sits on the cam shaft. Hope this helps

Has any one had or know of any information on chevy venture experiencing uncontrolled acceleration in reverse or foreward. My friend had a one vehicle accident when her Venture took off when placed in reverse. I would like to know if any one has knowledge of this type of incident. Thanks.
